    1997 GT - Blinking lights after changing battery

    Hi there,

    I have a stomper. I just bought this 1997 GT and was told that it did not
    have a Keyless Entry System or remotes. Anyway, I replaced the battery and
    when I put it in the lights started blinking outside and inside the car. The
    lights will blink four or five times, then stop for about 5 or 7 seconds and
    do it all over again. I followed the clicking sound under the dash and
    found a "Keyless Entry Control Unit" there. I guess there are some things
    that I was not told about and find out slowly.

    The problem is - how do I stop the blinking lights? I had to disconnect the
    battery since I was not sure what to do. I am not driving the car yet since
    it is not registered but would like to clean it and get these bugs out of
    the system before taking it out.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Manny,

    You apparently do have the Keyless Entry installed in that car. Since
    remotes are about $60 from the dealer the seller of the car may have not
    wanted to spend money on a car the were selling.

    You can either disconnect the Keyless Remote module (not sure how
    personally) or buy a remote from a dealer or online.
    If you buy the remote, it will come with instructions for programing the
    remote. Once it is programed, you can lock and unlock the doors and the
    flashing lights will stop.

    Off the module, you should find a small pushbutton switch. Turn the key to
    the run position and press the switch for one second. That should reset the
    module.

    This actually sounds like an aftermarket unit, (omega, code alarm, possibly
    lojack) There generally was a overide switch, black button, silver toggle,
    could even be a window, high beams, rear defroster....

    The alarm system was probably pulled by the dealer as they did not have
    programmable remotes for the unit, check to see if there are any numbers
    model, serial that are on the keyless module. Go to a local alarm shop and
    check what make and if they can get the remotes? is all the hardware there?
    or can they remove all the remaining hardware.
